An Order of Magnitude (abbreviated to OoM) is a measurement of how many 10s you must multiply together to get to a number. Using logarithms, you can instead see what you need to raise ten to the power of, to get non-integer Orders of Magnitude.

Farm Value is measured in orders of magnitude. This allows for easier comparison, because 1036 and 1042 are easier to compare than 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 and 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. With Orders of Magnitude, you don't have to painstakingly count the zeroes; you can use exponent rules to calculate 1042 divided by 1036 as 1042-36, which simplifies to 106, meaning one farm value is 1 million times the other.

New units names and abbreviations are added with some game updates as the player base achieves higher farm values. Most of the unit names are based on those found in a dictionary or commonly used online, but sometimes there are minor differences.

Calculation[]

To calculate a number in OoM, you evaluate log10(number). A logarithm is the answer to the question "To what power must I raise the base (the small number written immediately after the word "log") to get the argument (the normal-sized number, usually written in parentheses)?", where a "power" means multiplying a certain number of copies of a number together. For example, 106 is calculated by multiplying 6 copies of the number 10 together, which results in 1,000,000. Hence, log10(1,000,000) gives 6 as the Order of Magnitude.

Notes[]

  • Going beyond $999tT (999 Trigintillion, 1095) causes the game to display the number as 'A Lot'.
  • Common Research costs can reach $16.564uV, assuming no discounts of any form are active. The 'uV' price range is unique to the Timeline Splicing research, as well as the final 12 levels of Matter Reconfiguration.
  • T is trillion and if Td is too long T is also tredecillion.
